Research Review: Current evidence for avoidant restrictive food intake disorder: Implications for clinical practice and future directions
Open Access paper from JCPP Advances – ARFID (avoidant restrictive food intake disorder) is a relatively new diagnostic term covering a number of well-recognised, clinically significant disturbances in eating behaviour unrelated to body weight/shape concerns.

Research Review: The typical and atypical development of empathy: How big is the gap from lab to field?
Open Access paper from JCPP Advances – “Empathy-understanding and sharing someone else’s feelings-is crucial for social bonds.
